A Day in the Life of a Data Engineer
The first time I considered becoming a data professional was in my last year of college when I took a class in machine learning and big data. I saw the potential impact and use cases of machine learning that have simply not been seen before. Even... Read more
Using NLP to identify Adverse Drug Events (ADEs)
An adverse drug event (ADE) is defined as harm experienced by a patient as a result of exposure to a medication. A significant amount of information about drug-related safety issues such as adverse effects is published in medical case reports that usually can only be explored by... Read more
Causal Reasoning in Machine Learning
Thanks to recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI), we are now able to leverage Machine Learning and Deep Learning technologies in both academic and commercial applications. Although, relying just on correlations between the different features, can possibly lead to wrong conclusions since correlation does not necessarily... Read more
